A guy struggles with his fear to be a loser. He desperately wants to prove to himself, his family, his girlfriend that he can be a success on his own. Without the help of his father. He enters a development scheme with Scotland Yard but instead of proving that he is a success, he realizes that it is actually not success, he is looking for... Sounds a bit weird, I know, and somehow it is. But - and this makes this little B-flick really interesting - the main character's desperation is so convincing that you just want to know how he manages to get over his problems. Also a very nice idea: The whole story is wrapped and interrupted by a fairy tale about fear. I can't second other reviewers critique about bad acting. I think all the actors do a good, some even a very good job. The only reason I have to subtract a star is the fact that the whole visual concept is not really working out. Yes, this is a B-movie (cheap movie), but some decisions about the look of this film remain incomprehensible.
